“Destroy Maggi packs”
Nestle pays Ambuja Cements Rs 20 crore It will take more than two minutes to crack the mystery but we try
Agency | New Delhi Nestle India has paid Rs 20 crore to Ambuja Cements for destroying Maggi instant noodles, which were found to be harmful for human consumption by the food regulators in the country. Ambuja Cements, formerly known as Gujarat Ambuja Cements, is believed to
have been paid the amount for burning the recalled packets of Maggi noodles at its cement plant in Chandrapur in Maharashtra. When contacted, a Nestle India spokesperson told PTI: “Gujarat Ambuja Cements is ... helping us to destroy the Maggi noodles being withdrawn by us from
the market.” While the spokesperson did not confirm the cost involved in burning Maggi at Ambuja Cements plant, he said:
“In addition to the value of stocks being destroyed there will be additional costs to take into account, for example bringing
back stock from the market, transporting the stock to the destruction points and destruction cost etc.” Nestle India said that these costs and other unforeseen costs associated with the withdrawal will be dealt with in line with the applicable accounting standards at the time of announcing the financial results on the due dates. Last month, Nestle India said it is in the process of destroying Maggi instant noodles worth Rs 320 crore
after it was banned by the central food safety regulator FSSAI due to presence of lead and taste enhancer monosodium glutamate (MSG) beyond permissible limits. On June 5, FSSAI banned Maggi directing Nestle to immediately withdraw and recall all nine variants of Maggi instant noodles from market. Nestle India has also recalled the product from the market. Nestle India has challenged the ban order in the Bombay high court
Shahid Kapoor, Mira Vyapam scam: 3-member panel to Rajput’s real-life vivaah examine scribe’s viscera at AIIMS
Agency | New Delhi The All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) has constituted a three-member board to examine the viscera samples and conduct histopathological examination of tissues of TV journalist Akshay Singh who died under mysterious circumstances while covering Vyapam scam. The board members include Additional Professor Dr Adarsh Kumar, Professor Dr Millo Tabin and Senior Resident Doctor Shashank Pooniya, all from the Forensic Department of AIIMS. According to AIIMS sources, the viscera samples are likely to be sent to CFSL Delhi while histopathological examination of tissues will be conducted at AIIMS itself. “There are two parts of it there is a possibility that the viscera samples (internal organs)
which is required for performing toxicological analysis will be sent to CFSL Delhi while histopathological examination which involves microscopic examination of tissues to study manifestations of disease will be carried out at AIIMS itself,” the sources said.The viscera samples were handed over to the Head of the Department of AIIMS, Dr Sudhir Gupta by a police team from Jhabua, Madhya Pradesh, earlier in the day. As per post-mortem done by Dahod General Hospital in Gujarat, no internal or external injuries were found on his body. He had
an enlarged heart and weight of the heart was more than normal and lungs were congested, the report stated. However, doctors who conducted the autopsy had “reserved” their opinion on the cause of death, following which the samples were brought to Delhi. Singh, working with Delhi-based TV Today Group, suddenly took ill and died last Saturday after having interviewed parents of a girl Namrata Damor, who had been found dead near railway tracks after her name figured in the Vyapam scam. The demand for sending the viscera outside the state was made
by Singh’s sister in a letter to Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan. India Today group, for which Singh worked, had also urged Madhya Pradesh government to send his viscera sample to a forensic laboratory outside the state, preferably AIIMS at Delhi, for a transparent examination. A large number of accused and witnesses of the scam a massive admission and recruitment racket involving several middlemen, medical college owners, bureaucrats and politicians - have died so far under mysterious circumstances. Bowing to public outcry, Chouhan said he will request the High Court to order a CBI probe into the Vyapam case, including the large number of deaths of people allegedly linked to the scam.
WHO puts Quest Life Sciences on notice for clinical code violation
Agency | New Delhi Chennai-based contract research firm, Quest Life Sciences has been issued a warning by WHO over violation of procedures during clinical trials for HIV drugs, second such Indian company after GVK Biosciences to have come under regulatory scrutiny. The World Health Organisation has issued a ‘Notice of Concern’ after inspection of the
company’s facility revealed critical deviations from ‘Good Clinical Practises’, over data integrity, subject safety and quality assurance. In March, WHO had asked Quest to respond to a series of serious observations after an inspection in October 2014 during
trials of HIV treatment drugs Lamivudine, Zidovudine and Nevarapine dispersible tablets from Micro Labs. WHO inspectors had found that “over 67 per cent of pre- study electrocardiograms were duplicates of each other” and “in one instance a single
ECG was reused for up to nine times for different subjects”. “This means that ECGs may not have been performed or were unreliable and therefore ineligible/ unfit subjects could have been used in the study and protocol requirements have not been met,” WHO said. “An apparent attempt was made to hide documents from inspectors” by laboratory staff of Quest, it added.
Agency | New Delhi Shahid Kapoor married Delhi-based Mira Rajput in a gurudwara wedding and the couple was very simply dressed . Media person Kommal D Seth tweeted a picture of the newlyweds during the ceremony. The two tied the knot at a farm house on the outskirts of the
national capital. Shahid Kapoor opted for a white kurta-pyjama and a safa (turban) while Mira wore a green and pink salwar-kurta with a heavy embellished dupatta wrapped around her head. She teamed it up with a statement maang tikka on her forehead and minimal make-
up. The ‘Vivah’ actor wanted it to be a close-knit affair and only the couple’s family members and few friends were invited to be part of the ceremony. Shahid Kapoor, from the beginning, kept the details of his marriage under wraps as he feels their wedding is a “normal and regular affair”. “I refrain from getting into details. I thought that since I am here today, it was important to acknowledge it in front of the media, so I am doing that. Other than that, she is a normal girl and I am a normal guy, and we should treat it like something normal and regular. It’s my personal space and I won’t get into the details,” Shahid had said.

The lesson from the Vyapam scam
Public attention has quite rightly been focused on the series of mysterious deaths of those involved in what has come to be known as the Vyapam scam. It is now quite clear that there was massive corruption in the competitive exams for professional courses and government jobs in Madhya Pradesh. A careful statistical analysis by one of our quant writers, Karthik Shashidhar, shows that the number of deaths linked to the case is highly unusual, especially those in the past few days. Shashidhar assumed that 7,000 people were involved in the scam and took into account the relevant mortality data of all Indians. The probabilities change in case you assume a different number of people involved in the scam as well as a different number of deaths. Yet, there is ample reason to suspect that something is wrong in the way people linked to the scam have died. There is another worry that also needs public attention. The iron framework of the Indian nation state has already become brittle; what has happened in Madhya Pradesh should be seen as an advance warning that there is worse in the offing. The corrupt examination system will further damage Indian public services. Citizens will have to depend on engineers, doctors and bureaucrats who are essentially incompetent but have managed to get plum postings by gaming public examinations. India needs to build adequate state capacity if it is to meet the growing aspirations of its citizens as well as hold its own in a hostile neighbourhood. China is the inevitable point of comparison. For all their faults, our national public institutions are still islands of competence: think of the Supreme Court, the senior civil servants, the Armed Forces and the Reserve Bank of India, for example. The problem is more acute in the lower levels of government. Why should this matter? There has been a clear movement towards administrative decentralization in recent years. Prime Minister Narendra Modihas often spoken about the importance of the states. The last two Finance Commissions have also said that more money should flow to the second and third tiers of government, or the state and local authorities. Centrally sponsored schemes are also being cut down to size. This newspaper has generally welcomed such empowerment. But we have also previously warned that such a transfer of resources to lower levels of government will work only if there is adequate administrative capacity and human capital on the ground.

PIL seeks ban on release of Salman Khan’s ‘Bajrangi Bhaijaan’
Agency | Allahabad A petition seeking a ban on the release of Salman Khan-starrer “Bajrangi Bhaijaan” was today filed in the Allahabad High Court. The Public Interest Litigation, filed by Chitrakoot-based social activist Anil Pradhan, has alleged that the movie contained scenes which could “hurt religious sentiments of the majority community”. Scheduled for
release on Idd, the movie tells the story of a young girl from Pakistan, who strays into Indian territory and faces tremendous difficulties on account of her being speech-impaired. Salman, for whom it would be his first release ever since his conviction in the hitand-run case, plays a Samaritan who takes it upon himself to help the child reunite with her family in the
neighboring country. The film, which also features Kareena Kapoor and Nawazuddin Siddiqui, is scheduled for release on July 17. The PIL, in which the Ministry for Information and Broadcasting, the film’s producers Yashraj Films and other members of the star cast have been named as parties, is likely to come up for hearing later this week.

Agency | New Delhi The Sahara group on Tuesday told the Supreme Court that it was not possible for it to repay, in 18 months, Rs 36,000 crore of investors’ money that it had collected in 200708 in 18 months as was ordered by the court on 17 June. “There is no business house in the country or in the world which can deposit Rs36,000 crore in 18 months time,” senior counsel Kapil Sibal, appearing for jailed Sahara chief Subrata Roy, told a bench of justice TSThakur, justice Anil R Dave and Justice AK Sikri. He said that he was getting an application ready that would be moved in a week’s time pointing to the difficulty in arranging Rs36,000 crore to return the investors money. His
admission came as justice Thakur asked him that suppose Sahara was not able to repay the entire amount. At this, senior counsel Arvind Dattar, appearing for market regulator Sebi, told the court that Sahara had told in the past that it can and would return the investors money and it had the resources to do so. In response, Sibal said: “If I have told the court that I can and I will pay but if I am not abler to (return) then I can be sent to jail.” The apex court had 19 June given Sahara’s two companies - SIRECL and SHFCL - 18 months to repay the investors’ money which they had collected in 2007-08 through OFCDs.

India, New Zealand women head into ODI series decider
Agency | Bengaluru The gloves are off as India take on New Zealand in the fifth and final game of the women’s One-Day International (ODI) five-match series here on Wednesday with the teams locked 2-2. The series decider is likely to be a battle of nerves as both teams will be going all out to clinch the rubber with the Kiwis aiming for their maiden bilateral series win in India in three attempts. Through the previous four games,
there has been little separating the two teams, both of whom have been alternately excelling and struggling. The Kiwis did well to shrug off a loss in the very first game to take the next two matches before the Indians hit back by winning the fourth after chasing down a 200-plus run target. As New Zealand skipper Suzie Bates mentioned on Wednesday, the Kiwis have been weighed down by mini collapses that have taken the wind
out of their sails. They looked set to score in excess of 250 in the fourth ODI on Monday here, but fell short to be bowled out for 220. India reached the target in 44.2 overs losing just two wickets. On the other hand, Indian batting did not looked quite the part. Marked by individual rather than collective effort until Wednesday when the top order fired in unison with skipper Mithali Raj and opener Smriti Mandhana scored half-centuries.
